Seriously.. How is "getting angry of a recent fatal crash of a ferrarri and a taxi" an excuse to do something like this? o.O

It says that the woman pressed the button after the bus had left its stop, so maybe he was scared that there would be a crash just like the ferrarri and taxi. It says he has OCD, where everything has to be perfect for a person, where even, for example, moving an object 3cm from where it was placed can also give the person panic attacks. You can imagine how it must be for that person living in our world. Plus, he has clinical depression, which can't be very good for him if he doesn't have a job and other things mentioned in the news. It is characterized by many things, but I guess in this situation "feelings of worthlessness and extreme guilt" would be appropriate to consider.

So imagine, having extreme fits of guilt, so much so that you think of killing yourself because you are feeling worthless, then someone does something that would make you extremely angry (I know its a small thing for us but for him is really important).
I won't even talk about the hypothetical situation where he might be having a bad day from the very beginning.

Of course I sympathize with the elderly woman, she is older maybe she didn't see the bus moving or too slow to click the button on the right time, but if she was not severely hurt, I believe she should take the charges back on the condition that Alex Ong guy goto a medical professional
